We create jobs, and not just any jobs. We provide stable jobs with competitive pay and benefits to those who need it most: blind people.

About 70% of Americans with severe vision loss are unemployed. Our employees share stories of being turned away by potential employers over and over again before finding meaningful work at the Lighthouse. We have never turned away a blind applicant--if they're at the door looking for work, then we have a job for them.

By using adaptive technologies, we have legally blind employees in every department, including manufacturing, logistics, eCommerce, marketing, and accounting. Over 90% of our direct employees are legally blind and nearly 75% of all of our employees are legally blind.

We change lives. Our employees divulge that the Lighthouse has given them what no one else could: independence, self-reliance, the ability to provide for their families, and a better quality of life. Their amazing stories affirm the importance of our mission and inspire us to find new ways to create jobs for blind people.

We are constantly developing new products and expanding our product lines in order to grow our business, increase employment for blind Americans, and serve our customers in the Federal Government, State of Texas, and local communities. We now offer a huge range of products: lanyards, badge holders, over 50,000 office products, safety gloves and glasses, earth-friendly items, and much more.
